| One
of the most exciting things about car racing is
listening to the driver’s radio on a scanner.
The problem is that background noise often
drowns out the audio. Until now, there was not
a perfect solution for this noise problem.
Unlike traditional
audio devices used by motor sports fans, the
NoiseBuster Active Noise
Reduction (ANR) Earmuff
reduces the low frequency
noise generated by engines and motors that is
prevalent at race tracks. You can still
feel like part of the action but you'll also
hear every word from the scanner
clearly.
What is
Active Noise Reduction (ANR)?
NoiseBuster uses a microphone inside
the ear cup (1)
to listen to noise coming into the ear (2).
Using electronics (3),
the system takes that information and uses it to
create a noise wave that is identical to, but
directly opposite of, the one coming into the
ear. The "anti-noise" wave is output through a
speaker (4),
also located in the ear cup. When the two waves
(the noise wave and the anti-noise wave) meet,
the noise is significantly reduced (5).
